RE: where did you get him?

central iowa. weve got alot of big deer again this year. i guess iowa is a pretty good state to hunt deer.

[duffy]

why is it called a 10 point? not allowed to hunt in the uk.

[justin]

a ten point would have ten points on the antlers. some people dont count the brush tines though, so they would call it an 8 point. i dont know what this particular buck scores yet. my freind thats scores them is away on a fishing trip.

EDIT: anyone got a guess on what he would score?
EDIT2: i uploaded a pic from the feild and updated my first post. much better quality!!
EDIT3: and the "score" (not having much to do with the points) has something to do with total antler length, width and height. idk for sure

Congrade. Nice trophy. Also nice shot placement. What broadhead did you use?

[justin]

lol you see where i shot him? it wasnt exactly an ideal shot but i was close, it was a 22 yard shot straight on. i was grouping under 2 inches at that range that afternoon so took the shot. the broadhead i was using was a nap shockwave. but i wish i had a fixed blade knocked for a straight into the chest shot. my aarow buried to just before the flech though. he got about 75 yards dumping lots of blood. it was a quick kill. i did a rough score tonight too and came up with 137. not so bad for my first deer.

EDIT: i apoligise for the blood and the tounge hanging out.

Lol don't think there would have been any chance of a past throw from that position. Very nice Trophy. Any deer killed with a bow is a trophy. But thats a nice deer all the way round.

[justin]

yeah its nice! but i saw some pictures of some real monsters taken in a muzzleloader youth season. omfg.

[justin]

a guy i work with shot a 168 this year.... another guy i know shot a 157 last year......... iowa is full of monster bucks!!!!
